i have gone through the complete install, but something is wrong. When i go to http://www.mysite/wcms/index.php ..... i get redirected to dbdown.php where i get a error msg that says:

We are sorry!
For service reasons the system is temporarily not attainable.
Visit us later again!

if anyone has any ideas, id really appreciate the help.

Thanks,

can you give me an example of the correct db settings? i have them set up how i think they should be, but obviously its not correct. my problem is that i dont know what ive done wrong. i entered the db name, password, host as they are on my server. i could have the path wrong.

would you happen to have an example?

thanks, i appreciate your help!

hello

sorry but i don't know you db settings!

if you follow these steps
http://www.phpwcms-docu.de/index.php?installation_en

then everything should work execept you have spelling errors in db name, db login and db password

I had the same problem. MySQL 4.1 and up uses a new authentication protocol. After transforming the admin-password all went well.

Re: db problem

Mysql version 4.1 and up might be the problem
